DVD Help

I often watch DVDs on my Mac OSX.
Today I put one in, that I have never watched before, but instead of playing the computer has not even recognised there is a disk in there. Usually it comes up on the desktop, but it did not this time. Also when I tried to use functions on the Apple DVD player to see if I could play it, it didn't do it saying 'not permittable'.
I can't even eject it.

Please could someone help me and tell me what to do, I mainly just want to get it out of the computer.
 
To get the disk out, restart the Mac holding down the mouse button. This will tell the hardware to eject upon startup.

To see if the drive still works try to reset your Pram. This may help with the DVD reading.

I tried this and it did not eject???
Do you continue to hold the mouse down while the Mac is reloading or stop holding it down once you have pressed restart?
